What does the Lord your God require of you * A Christian post*

Deuteronomy 10:12-13

New International Version (NIV)

Fear the Lord

12 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, to love him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul,13 and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good

BELOW IS NOT MINE I FOUND IT AND THOUGHT IT WAS AN EXCELLENT EXPLAINATION OF THE VERSE:

I. Deueronomy 10:12 “And now, O Israel, what does the LORD your God
ask of you but to FEAR the LORD your God, to WALK in all his ways, to
LOVE him, to SERVE the LORD your God with all your heart and with all
your soul, 13 and to observe the Lord’s commands and decrees that I am
giving you today for your own good?”

A. “FEAR the LORD your God.”We
must reverence Him as the only God. We stand in awe of His might and
His power. There is nothing else and no one else who deserves our
reverence. One of my favorite stories is about William Penn, the
founder of Pennsylvania and his refusal to take his hat off for the King
of England. It was his conviction that only God should receive that
kind of reverence.

B. “WALK in all his ways,” Far to many
people seek God’s will when it seems easy or pleasing to their desires.
Only the committed Christian really wants to walk in all of the light
that God gives. Today, far too many believe that there is no real
truth. We know that real truth exists. We must be totally committed to
a godly way of life: The way of holiness.

C. “LOVE him.”To
really love God/Him is to have a real relationship with Him. The more
time we spend with Him the more we will love Him. The more time we spend with God, the more that we want to do all
to bring glory to our loving Heavenly Father.
